With AI like ChatGPT now handling the customer journey from search to potentially the entire transaction, are we about to witness the end of the brand website as the primary point of conversion? Agility requires not just reacting to new technologies like AI, but proactively redesigning the core operating model of the marketing organization. It demands a shift from mastering a set of fixed channels to building a flexible system that can learn, test, and scale with entirely new platforms for discovery and engagement. Today, we're going to talk about how AI is fundamentally rewriting the playbook for marketing—from how customers discover brands in the first place, to the very nature of content creation, and the operational realities of building a team and a tech stack that can keep up. It's a topic filled with both existential threats and massive opportunities.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome Lisa Avvocato, Chief Marketing Officer at Vitam and former VP of Marketing and Community at Sama.

In this episode, we're sitting down with the incredible Alexandra Hoover—a compassionate writer, speaker, and the author of Eyes Up, Without Wavering, and You Can Let Go. Alex is known for blending biblical wisdom with practical, hope-filled insight, and today she brings all of that and more. She is a proud Latina, a wife and mom of three, and currently pursuing her master of arts in women and theology at Northern Seminary. She serves faithfully in her local church and loves helping others walk through life with faith and hope.Alex opens up about the importance of healing from past offenses and the ways emotional wounds can quietly shape our leadership, our relationships, and even our ministry. She helps us understand how our history can show up in our present—and what God invites us to do with that. With vulnerability and clarity, she reminds us that while hurt is inevitable, offense is a choice, and healing is part of our calling as leaders.Follow along with Alex:Connect @AlexandraVHooverAlexandraVHoover.comGet all the info about our next pastors' wives retreat and apply here:https://www.pastorswivestellall.com/attendaretreatTo purchase the BOOK, head here: ⁠https://pastorswivestellall.com/book⁠⁠To shop our MERCH, head here: ⁠https://pastorswivestellall.com/shop⁠⁠Want to support the Pastors' Wives Tell All podcast ministry?

Convidado: Filipe Figueiredo, historiador pela USP, colunista do jornal O Estado de São Paulo e criador do podcast Xadrez Verbal. Com a maior estrutura militar do planeta, há décadas os Estados Unidos transformaram seu poder bélico em instrumento de política externa. Em nome da segurança nacional e de interesses estratégicos, Washington atuou – direta ou indiretamente – para intervir na política de outros países ao redor do globo. Os resultados deixaram rastros de instabilidade e crises duradouras. A exemplo do que aconteceu no Iraque, no Irã e no Afeganistão, onde a ocupação americana durou duas décadas. Agora, o presidente dos EUA, Donald Trump, afirma que a intervenção na Venezuela não tem data para terminar – e vai durar até um processo de transição de poder. Neste episódio, Victor Boyadjian conversa com o historiador Filipe Figueiredo. Colunista do jornal O Estado de São Paulo e criador e apresentador do podcast Xadrez Verbal, Filipe relembra o que levou às invasões de países na América Latina e no Oriente Médio – e responde como o movimento MAGA dá uma nova roupagem ao processo de intervencionismo americano. Ele explica o que deu errado em uma série de processos de intervenção e, por fim, traça um paralelo entre as invasões do Iraque e da Venezuela.

What if I told you that for every new dollar you've added to your marketing budget in the last two years, your actual impact on customers has gone down? Agility requires moving beyond the muscle memory of simply increasing ad spend. It demands a continuous reassessment of what truly connects with customers and a willingness to pivot creative strategy based on real-time cultural and emotional insights. Today, we're going to talk about a paradox that's likely keeping many marketing leaders up at night: the massive increase in global ad spend versus the startling drop in marketing impact. It's what Shutterstock's latest research calls the "impact gap," and we'll explore why the old playbook of just spending more is broken, and what the new drivers of success—like emotional connection, cultural relevance, and AI-powered personalization—actually look like in practice. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Allison Sitzman, Vice President of Brand Strategy at Shutterstock. About Allison Sitzman Drawing on over 20 years of experience, Allison Sitzman is a strategic marketing leader who helps brands navigate inflection points, translating customer insight into growth and differentiation.

Convidadas: Carol Prado, repórter do g1; e Isabela Boscov, jornalista e crítica de cinema. Em 2026, a cultura latino-americana deve ampliar ainda mais seu espaço no entretenimento global. A previsão é da revista britânica "The Economist", que aponta a América Latina como um dos principais motores da indústria cultural neste ano. Isso, depois de, em 2025, a música e o cinema latinos terem tido destaque no showbiz mundial. Artistas como Bad Bunny e Karol G lideram rankings globais, e empresas do setor cultural anunciam investimentos bilionários na região. Tudo impulsionado por um público numeroso, jovem e altamente conectado, que tem transformado produções locais em fenômenos internacionais. Enquanto isso, o cinema brasileiro vive um momento de maior visibilidade fora do país. ‘O Agente Secreto' e outros quatro brasileiros estão na pré-lista do Oscar 2026. O filme de Kleber Mendonça Filho soma também recordes no Globo de Ouro: foram 3 indicações, nas categorias Melhor Filme de Drama, Melhor Filme em Língua Não-Inglesa e Melhor Ator em Filme de Drama, com Wagner Moura. Neste episódio, Natuza Nery recebe a repórter do g1 Carol Prado para explicar como a música latina deixou de ser nichada e passou a protagonista mundial. Carol detalha os números deste mercado e como o movimento tem uma dimensão política. Depois, Natuza conversa com a crítica de cinema Isabela Boscov. É ela quem analisa o momento do cinema brasileiro e latino-americano e fala da importância de políticas de incentivo permanentes.

Agility requires more than just the latest AI tools. It sometimes requires fundamentally re-engineering how your brand earns visibility and trust in an algorithm-driven world. It demands a shift from winning clicks on a search page to becoming the definitive answer for an AI agent.

Ken McCarthy returns to the podcast to tackle a subject that affects every American: the quiet collapse of modern medicine. In this episode, we dive into Ken's new book, Diabolical Errors: The Strange and Unsettling History of Vaccine Science, a deeply researched examination of how the U.S. healthcare system reached its current breaking point.  Why is the country now marked by chronic disease epidemics, shrinking doctor–patient time, worsening maternal and infant outcomes, and an ever-expanding reliance on pharmaceutical interventions? Ken joins us to explain… Ken challenges the long-held assumption that mass medical mandates are grounded in clear, settled science. Instead, he argues that institutional authority has increasingly replaced genuine scientific inquiry, leaving patients with fewer choices, worse outcomes, and little room to ask fundamental questions. In this conversation, we explore: What history tells us about the current state of the medical system. How the American medical system became so expensive, bureaucratic, and ineffective. Why chronic and metabolic diseases are exploding despite advanced care. How fear, incentives, and coercion shape medical policy. Whether there is a realistic path forward for patients and practitioners alike. Drawing on decades of experience as an Internet pioneer, researcher, and systems thinker, Ken connects the dots between information control, institutional corruption, and the erosion of medical trust. If you're ready to question assumptions and examine how we got here, this discussion is for you! To learn more about Ken McCarthy and his work, click here.

Convidado: Guilherme Casarões, cientista político e professor da Florida International University. No início de dezembro de 2025, os Estados Unidos anunciaram sua nova Estratégia de Segurança Nacional — um documento que redefine as prioridades da política externa americana. O texto foca menos em Oriente Médio e Europa e aponta maior atenção à América Latina, à Ásia e à disputa com a China. Um mês depois da divulgação, os EUA invadiram a Venezuela e capturaram Nicolás Maduro. Na sequência, Donald Trump voltou a reivindicar o controle sobre a Groenlândia. E, no início desta semana, o Departamento de Estado publicou uma imagem do presidente americano com os dizeres: “Este é o nosso hemisfério”. Em destaque, a palavra “nosso”. Neste episódio, Natuza Nery conversa com Guilherme Casarões para explicar como a política externa americana é a peça-chave no redesenho de um novo mapa-múndi, no qual as zonas de influência importam mais do que as fronteiras nacionais – e onde as grandes potências, de acordo com a visão da Casa Branca, seriam EUA, China e Rússia. Cientista político e professor da Florida Internacional Univeristy, Casarões responde como ficam as influências de China e Rússia (na Ásia, Europa e América Latina) e o status da Europa e do Oriente Médio. Ele também analisa a situação das potências regionais, caso do Japão, da Índia e do Brasil.

With AI poised to generate nearly infinite content, personalization, and experiences, is the single most important thing marketers should be focused on actually something that can't be automated at all? Agility requires not just adopting new technologies, but knowing when and how to double down on timeless human principles. It's about integrating the power of AI without losing the soul of the brand. Today, we're going to talk about the unexpected paradox of the AI revolution. As artificial intelligence becomes more capable of creating, personalizing, and automating customer interactions at scale, the most critical differentiator for a business isn't a better algorithm, but a stronger, more trusted brand. We'll explore why brand is becoming the essential human edge in an increasingly automated world, and how leaders can harness AI not to replace their brand, but to amplify it. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Jessica Shapiro, Chief Marketing Officer at LiveRamp.

Tech is no longer the future. It is the present. And it is moving fast. Today's theme, Latinas Leading the Tech Revolution, is a reminder that innovation is not reserved for a select few. It belongs to us too, and this moment demands that we stop standing on the sidelines and start shaping the world being built around us.In today's episode, we revisit three powerhouse conversations with four mujeres who are rewriting the narrative about who gets to lead, innovate, and take up space in tech. Their journeys are different, but they echo the same message: ownership. Ownership of their voice. Ownership of their path. Ownership of their right to stand in rooms where new ideas take shape.We begin with Nikki Barua, interim CEO of Latinas in Tech, whose life is a masterclass in reinvention and bold vision. Nikki shows us that obstacles are not barriers; they are gateways, and when you move with intention, your path expands. Her approach to leadership encourages us to rethink what is possible when Latina women fully step into their ambitions.Next, we revisit Christina Gallegos, leadership strategist and former Google leader. Christina gives us a behind-the-scenes understanding of what leadership looks like inside one of the world's biggest tech ecosystems. Her message is simple and powerful: leadership without humanity is empty, and women lead differently because we care differently.Finally, we return to a fire-filled conversation with Marisela Arechiga and Lizette Espinosa, entrepreneurs and AI educators dedicated to bringing accessible tech knowledge directly into our community. They remind us that our community cannot afford to be last in line for the tools shaping the world, especially AI.Tune in and let these four mujeres show you what happens when Latinas stop waiting to be invited into the future and start building it.Episode Takeaways:Why Nikki believes obstacles are levels, not limits (2:20)The childhood imprint that shaped her belief in possibility and impact (3:10)How reinvention becomes a superpower when you choose curiosity over fear (4:55)Christina's path through top global companies and what prepared her for Google (7:50)Why tech is “like water” and why every industry now depends on it (8:40)Her role in expanding Google Maps to support users in crisis and emergency zones (10:00)Why Latina representation in tech isn't optional, it's essential (12:50)Marisela's callout: our community cannot afford to be the last adopters of emerging tech (16:00)The truth about AI tools, what they can and can't replace, and why human connection stays central (22:40)Connect with Nikki Barua:XLinkedInConnect with Christina D.

Are you building a business but still feeling unsure about taxes and money moves? In this conversation, I sat down with Laura Zarrate, CPA, to break down what every small business owner needs to know. We talked about the truth behind LLCs, write-offs, and quarterly taxes—plus the mindset shift it takes to go from employee to entrepreneur. Laura also shared her powerful perspective on defining wealth beyond just money—because for many of us, it's about freedom, time, and familia.Chapters:00:00 – Meet Laura Zarrate, CPA: Latina Entrepreneur & Tax Expert06:25 – LLCs and Taxes: What Small Business Owners Need to Know11:52 – How Quarterly Taxes Work (and How to Stay Ready)16:17 – Small Business Write-Offs: What You Can (and Can't) Deduct22:47 – Shifting Your Sales Mindset: Charge Your Worth with Confidence26:09 – Redefining Wealth: Freedom, Family, and Time Over Money

El operativo militar de Estados Unidos en Venezuela, con bombardeos en Caracas que culminó con la captura del mandatario Nicolás Maduro, es la sexta operación militar directa en América Latina en los últimos 75 años.

Nicolás Maduro y su esposa tuvieron hoy su primera comparecencia ante un tribunal federal de Nueva York. Allí se declararon no culpables. Esto fue todo lo que allí sucedió.En Caracas la vicepresidenta Delcy Rodríguez asumió esta mañana como presidenta encargada y en su primer mensaje reiteró su apoyo a Maduro.Venezuela fue declarado en estado de conmoción, el país está militarizado y con orden de detener a cualquiera que muestre apoyo al operativo en contra de Nicolás Maduro.El presidente Trump insiste en que Estados Unidos está a cargo de Venezuela y en el Capitolio se preguntan cuál será el rol de la administración Trump en el país con mayores reservas de petróleo del mundo.La captura de Nicolás Maduro podría ser solo el inicio de los operativos de Trump en América Latina. Otros países están en su mira. 

Renowned Palestinian theologian Rev. Mitri Raheb and theologian Graham McGeoch join us for a sobering conversation about the reality we live in “After Gaza”. We particularly reflect on their recent edited volume “Theology After Gaza” that analyzes how theology has been misused to justify oppression in Israel's war on Gaza, countering it with liberation theologies centered on justice and truth where Gaza serves as a crisis point for Western theology, Zionism, and modernity.Rev. Dr. Mitri Raheb is the Founder and President of Dar al-Kalima University in Bethlehem and widely recognized as the most prolific Palestinian theologian to date. A social entrepreneur and elected member of the Palestinian National Council, he previously served as the senior pastor of the Christmas Lutheran Church in Bethlehem from 1987 to 2017. Dr. Raheb has authored or edited 50 books, including Decolonizing Palestine and Faith in the Face of Empire, with his works translated into thirteen languages. His extensive contributions to theology, peace, and culture have garnered significant international recognition, including the Olof Palme Prize, the German Media Prize, and the Aachen Peace Award.Rev. Graham McGeoch is a theologian, Church of Scotland minister, and scholar specializing in liberation theology, ecumenism, and World Christianity. He currently serves as the Mission Secretary for Discipleship and Dialogue at the Council for World Mission (CWM). Additionally, he is a professor of Theology and Religious Studies at the Faculdade Unida de Vitória (UNIDA) in Brazil and a research associate at the University of Pretoria in South Africa. His most recent major publication is Theology After Gaza: A Global Anthology (2025), which he co-edited with Palestinian theologian Mitri Raheb. His other recent works include World Christianity and Ecological Theologies (2024) and Teologia da Libertação na América Latina: novas sementes de inquietação (2024). Become a monthly supporter of Across the Divide on Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/AcrosstheDivide Follow Across the Divide for more on ⁠Instagram⁠ ⁠⁠⁠‪@AcrosstheDividePodcast‬⁠⁠⁠Across the Divide partners with Peace Catalyst International to amplify the pursuit of peace and explore the vital intersection of Christian faith and social justice in Palestine-Israel.#israel #palestine #gaza #christianity #bible #faith #zionism

Todo ano, no último dia de dezembro, São Paulo recebe milhares de atletas para a Corrida Internacional de São Silvestre — a prova de rua mais tradicional da América Latina, criada em 1925 e prestes a completar 100 anos. Mas… quem foi São Silvestre, e por que essa corrida carrega esse nome? Neste vídeo, atravessamos os séculos para descobrir a história de Silvestre I, o 33º Papa da Igreja Católica (314–335), e entender o que ele tem a ver (ou não tem) com esporte. Você vai ver como a fé saiu das catacumbas após o Édito de Milão, como surgiram grandes basílicas em Roma, e por que o dia 31 de dezembro acabou eternizando um santo no calendário esportivo brasileiro.

What if the foundation of your digital strategy, your corporate website, is becoming less important than the conversations happening about your brand in places you don't control? Agility requires a fundamental shift in mindset, moving beyond just broadcasting your message on owned channels to actively shaping the narrative across an entire ecosystem you don't fully control. Today, we're going to talk about how generative AI is creating a new layer between your brand and your customers, changing how they discover information and what they trust. We'll explore the surprising new balance of power between owned media and earned media, and what it means for your PR, content, and SEO strategies moving forward. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Mark Nardone, CMO at PAN. About Mark Nardone Mark has been a driving force at PAN since its inception.

En este episodio el Profesor Ángel Rosa analiza las implicaciones políticas de la caída de Nicolás Maduro y la pregunta de fondo que muchos evitan: ¿se trata del fin de un liderazgo o del fin de un proyecto de poder? Más allá del desenlace inmediato, el episodio examina si el chavismo —como estructura política, red de lealtades e ideología— realmente colapsa o si se adapta para sobrevivir sin su figura central. Con contexto histórico, lectura regional y mirada crítica, el Profesor Rosa explica por qué los regímenes no siempre caen cuando cae su líder, y qué lecciones deja Venezuela para América Latina y el debate democrático contemporáneo. ¡No te lo pierdas!

Convidados: Leonardo Trevisan, prof. de Relações Internacionais da ESPM; e Oliver Stuenkel, prof. de Relações Internacionais da FGV e pesquisador da Universidade Harvard e do Carnegie Endowment. AVISO: O Assunto volta com episódio novo na terça-feira, 6 de janeiro. Sábado, 3 de janeiro de 2026. Ainda durante a madrugada, uma operação com soldados da tropa de elite dos EUA capturou Nicolás Maduro dentro de um complexo militar na capital Caracas. Maduro, que governava a Venezuela há 12 anos, foi pego junto com sua mulher e, depois, levado para os EUA, onde, segundo autoridades locais, será julgado por narcoterrorismo e outros três crimes. O ataque de Trump foi colocado em curso após meses de escalada na tensão no Caribe. Desde agosto, os EUA realizaram operações marítimas perto da costa da Venezuela, e Trump por várias vezes ameaçou regime agora deposto. A ação do presidente dos EUA foi criticada pelo governo brasileiro e por diversos países, mas recebeu apoio de alguns líderes, como o argentino Javier Milei. Neste episódio especial, Natuza Nery recebe Leonardo Trevisan, professor de Relações Internacionais da ESPM, e Oliver Stuenkel, professor de Relações Internacionais da FGV e pesquisador da Universidade Harvard e do Carnegie Endowment. Leonardo explica quais acordos internacionais Trump desrespeitou ao invadir o território venezuelano, pegar Maduro e levá-lo aos EUA. O professor da ESPM avalia quais são os reais interesses de Trump na Venezuela, a começar pelo petróleo – para ele, Maduro funcionou como um “troféu” para Trump. Leonardo responde o que pode acontecer a partir de agora. Oliver analisa como fica a relação do Brasil com Trump após a invasão dos EUA a um país da América Latina e a posição das grandes potências mundiais e suas áreas de influência. Ele explica também por que é possível considerar que os fatos em curso neste 3 de janeiro inauguram uma nova era da história da geopolítica.

Pasadas las nueve de la mañana de este sábado el presidente de Estados Unidos ha informado de que tanto el presidente venezolano Nicolás Maduro y su esposa han sido detenidos y trasladados fuera de Venezuela.

Confira os destaques do Jornal da Manhã deste sábado (03): O presidente dos Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, afirmou em uma rede social que forças americanas realizaram um ataque de grande escala contra a Venezuela e capturaram o presidente Nicolás Maduro, que teria sido retirado do país por via aérea. Trump não informou o destino e disse que dará mais detalhes em coletiva às 13h (horário de Brasília). Horas antes da declaração, moradores de Caracas relataram explosões, tremores, sobrevoo de aeronaves e apagões em áreas próximas à base aérea de La Carlota. Vídeos nas redes sociais mostram fumaça e intensa movimentação militar. O governo venezuelano reagiu decretando estado de comoção exterior, acusando os EUA de tentativa de mudança de regime para controle de recursos estratégicos, como petróleo e minerais. Após os bombardeios, a vice-presidente executiva da Venezuela, Delcy Rodríguez, afirmou que o governo não sabe onde está Nicolás Maduro e exige provas de que o presidente esteja vivo. A Rússia condenou a ação dos Estados Unidos, classificando o episódio como ‘preocupante e condenável', e pediu desescalada do conflito. Outros países também se manifestaram sobre a crise. Especialistas analisaram os desdobramentos da ofensiva. A internacionalista Priscila Silveira alertou para o risco de escalada internacional, com possível reação de China e Rússia, caso interesses estratégicos sejam afetados. O professor Danilo Porfírio afirmou que a ação segue um padrão histórico de intervenções e se insere no que chamou de ‘Doutrina Trump', com objetivo de reforçar a primazia dos EUA no continente e garantir controle sobre recursos estratégicos. Analistas da Jovem Pan, como Fabrício Naitzke e Danilo Porfírio, avaliam que a retirada de Maduro não resolve automaticamente a crise política e humanitária no país. O cientista político Carlos José León demonstrou preocupação com possíveis retaliações internas do regime chavista, incluindo repressão à oposição e agravamento da crise humanitária. A Venezuela solicitou uma reunião do Conselho de Segurança da ONU, em busca de uma saída diplomática, em meio a críticas ao enfraquecimento do papel da organização em conflitos internacionais. Na América Latina, o México condenou os ataques e defendeu o respeito à soberania venezuelana. No Brasil, o presidente Lula (PT) classificou a ofensiva como uma grave violação da soberania da Venezuela e afirmou que a ação ultrapassa a ‘linha do inaceitável'. O Itamaraty, sob comando do chanceler Mauro Vieira, acompanha a crise e mantém diálogo com autoridades venezuelanas. Lula retornou a Brasília para acompanhar as discussões. Após a ofensiva, venezuelanos foram às ruas em diferentes países para comemorar a captura de Nicolás Maduro, com manifestações registradas, por exemplo, em Santiago, no Chile. Trump afirmou ainda que acompanhou ‘ao vivo' a detenção de Maduro e declarou que o líder venezuelano será julgado nos Estados Unidos, o que intensificou a crise diplomática. A Venezuela também fechou a fronteira com o Brasil, decisão confirmada por autoridades brasileiras. O governo federal convocou reunião no Itamaraty para avaliar os impactos políticos, humanitários e econômicos da medida. Essas e outras notícias você acompanha no Jornal da Manhã.

Latinoamérica se alista para un año electoral decisivo en 2026, con seis países llamados a votar en medio de crisis económicas, tensiones sociales y militares en Venezuela y visiones políticas contrapuestas.

Programa 2/01/26: Analizamos el panorama político y electoral con el que América Latina recibe al 2026, hacemos un viaje por la cultura del café en Australia, y reflexionamos sobre los retos que enfrenta la comunidad transgénero en Australia.

En este 2025, América Latina ha virado a la derecha: Bolivia puso fin a 20 años de gobiernos de izquierda al elegir a Rodrigo Paz como presidente; Chile votó por José Antonio Kast y Honduras por Nasry Asfura, candidatos que gozaban del beneplácito y el apoyo de Trump. Daniel Noboa fue reelegido en Ecuador y Javier Milei logró una importante victoria en las legislativas argentinas. Analizamos este fenómeno con Alexis Medina, profesor de Asuntos Latinoamericanos de la Universidad de Franche-Comté. Rodrigo Paz, José Antonio Kast y Nasry Asfura son algunos de los políticos de derechas o de extrema derecha que han llegado al poder en este 2025 en Latinoamérica, una región que ha experimentado un marcado giro a la derecha en las urnas. ¿A qué se debe este cambio de dirección? Alexis Medina, profesor de Asuntos Latinoamericanos de la Universidad de Franche-Comté, sostiene que para explicar este fenómeno hay que evocar el alza de las tendencias populistas a nivel global, teniendo en cuenta, no obstante, las situaciones específicas de cada país. "Por un lado, hay una tendencia global de un giro no solamente hacia la derecha, sino incluso hacia la extrema derecha. Es algo que se observa también en Estados Unidos y en varios países europeos. La atomización de la sociedad y, por lo tanto, la búsqueda de chivos expiatorios, por ejemplo los inmigrantes, las minorías étnicas, los indígenas, etcétera. La acción colectiva se ve sustituida por un voto castigo a favor de la extrema derecha". Bolivia, autodestrucción del MAS y triunfo de la derecha Dicho esto, este profesor de la universidad francesa de Franche-Comté resalta que existen circunstancias propias de cada país, "factores internos", que explican este giro. "En el caso de Bolivia, por ejemplo, la victoria de la derecha se debe en buena medida a la autodestrucción del Movimiento al Socialismo, el MAS. En otros lugares, las fuerzas de derecha o de extrema derecha llegan al poder en un contexto en el que la izquierda estuvo gobernando, pero no estuvo a la altura de las expectativas que había despertado. Ese es el caso de Chile, por ejemplo, con el gobierno de Gabriel Boric: muchos chilenos consideraban que no estuvo a la altura y que no cumplió con esas promesas". En algunos casos, como el de Asfura en Honduras o el triunfo de Javier Milei en las pasadas legislativas argentinas, el presidente estadounidense Donald Trump estuvo presente, incluso supeditando su apoyo económico al país a que se cumplieran resultados que le complacían. ¿Cambiará esta postura la política internacional de Latinoamérica? Leer tambiénLos acontecimientos que deberían marcar al mundo en 2026 "Lo que es seguro es que estos gobiernos de derecha o de extrema derecha van a tener una relación más estrecha con los Estados Unidos de Trump. El mandatario estadounidense tiene buenas relaciones con el presidente de Ecuador, Daniel Noboa, con Milei en Argentina, y las tendrá seguramente con el nuevo presidente de Honduras, con Kast, etcétera. En cuanto a la relación con China, es posible que estos gobiernos de derecha o de extrema derecha sean reticentes a profundizar la dependencia económica que tiene América Latina con ese país. Pero yo no estoy tan seguro de hasta qué punto sean capaces de romper esa relación con Pekín, porque la presencia china en América Latina ya es relativamente antigua. China lleva varias décadas construyendo su influencia en la región. Va a ser difícil que países como Honduras, Ecuador o Argentina se distancien a nivel económico de China", concluye.
